Two questions related to this, just to clarify a few things:

1) Is Shiny Lugia obtainable from a non-Shiny Lugia voucher? There are 175 Shiny Lugia on-site, but only 168 winners according to the Lottery page. There is another Shiny Lugia in existence because of the 10 million adoption guaranteed Shiny event (here), but that still leaves 6 Shiny Lugia unaccounted for.
2) Is Shiny Celebi hatchable if the sprite at the Honeytree is non-Shiny? I've heard conflicting information on this question.

1) No, it's not. A non-shiny voucher will always get a non-shiny Lugia. There were several guaranteed shinies ID-numbers in the Guaranteed shiny Adoption Event, not just the one. It's possible that Lugia isn't the only one.

2) No, if the Celebi at the tree isn't shiny, it's not gonna hatch shiny.

Thank you!

EDIT: I did check the guaranteed shiny adopt numbers and unless I'm missing one or more, I didn't see any other Lugias, so I'm not sure where the other 6 are.

Another possibility is that the numbers aren't 100% accurate. If the site hasn't been keeping track of the numbers from the beginning, it's possible the first few Jackpots weren't registered.
